Recommended Posts

This is my third challenge. I gained some weight over the holidays, and I will weigh myself by Monday to have a starting weight for this challenge. I am STILL in the stupid aircast... waiting on insurance to kick in so I can see if I can get an xray. My ankle still hurts. I am going to slow things down a little this challenge because I think I put too much pressure on myself last challenge with my injury, and I kind of got depressed about it!!

Glad to see you back!  I really love your book challenge.  I think maybe I'll do something like that for myself in February - I've set a hard hat challenge to read daily. 

 

Best of luck!

Following! I love how specifically you journal your goals and your progress. Holidays and a bum ankle are just a minor setback. Keep up the good work.

What would yoga fall under? I put it as STR and STA... but I am wondering if I should put it under DEX?

Stamina: your endurance and energy.

Dexterity: your agility and speed.

 

I'd do a 50/50 split pointswise for those.

 

Thanks!! :)

Update on my ankle:

 

So, stop wearing the brace and weight bear as tolerable. If it starts hurting then wear the brace. If it continues to hurt after the next 2 weeks, xrays. No squats or lunges.

I know air casts are annoying, but try to keep with somewhat close by in case you need it. Remember RICE, even if it is old!

If you don't mind, could you tell us the diag of your foot?

Did you take X-ray?

My husband just got his next clinical schedule for school. He will be working from 1:45 pm to 10:15 pm. :/ I am really sad about this... I work from 9-5 so we won't see each other in the mornings, and he won't get home until around 11:00 in the evening. Just sucks.

No xray yet. Doctor wants me to stop wearing the aircast for the next 2 weeks and weight bear as tolerated. If it still hurts in 2 weeks we will get an xray. I am still restricted. Cannot do squats or lunges...
